| [Definition]
ChEBI: Cimifugin is an oxacycle and an organic heterotricyclic compound. | [in vivo]
Cimifugin (Cimitin; 12.5 or 50 mg/kg/day; intragastrically; 2 days) significantly inhibits TSLP and IL-33 in the initial stage of Mice are sensitized and challenged with FITC to establish type 2 atopic dermatitis (AD) model. Simultaneously, Cimifugin reduces the separated gap among the epithelial cells and increased the expression of TJs[1].
